EROSION CONTROL
systems brochure

When It Rains (or Blows, Flows or Washes), It Pours


Erosion not only wears away slopes, degrades shorelines and
steals precious topsoil, it can also threaten water sources,
damage man-made structures, reconfigure landscapes and
disrupt wildlife habitats. Add the stiff penalties at stake for
violating Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or local
enforcement agency regulations, and the costs of erosion
can quickly climb out of control.

Permanent RollMax Solutions

Back in the day, rock riprap, articulated concrete blocks and


poured concrete were the only way to deal with erosion in
high-flow channels, on shorelines and other areas where
water and/or wind exceed the shear limits of unreinforced
vegetation.
Not anymore. Tensars permanent Turf Reinforcement Mats
(TRMs) use 100% synthetic components or a composite
of synthetic and natural materials for long-term erosion
protection and vegetation establishment. Whether compared to rock riprap or concrete, the RollMax Systems
permanent TRMs offer a number of significant advantages:

VMAX COMPOSITE TURF REINFORCEMENT MATS


VMax C-TRMs combine three-dimensional matting with
fiber matrix material for permanent erosion control on severe
slopes, spillways, stream banks, shorelines and in high- to
extreme-flow channels. These extensively tested products
provide maximum performance through all three phases
of reinforced vegetative lining development: unvegetated,
establishment, and maturity. Incorporating the best
performance features of temporary and permanent
Tensar erosion control products, VMax C-TRMs deliver
these tangible benefits:

 Prevent loss of precious topsoil to wind and water


erosion

 Surface-applied for the highest level of immediate


soil protection

 Permanently reinforce vegetation root and stem


structures

 Less than one third of the installed cost of rock or concrete

 Provide excellent conditions for quick, healthy


vegetation growth

 More attractive and effective Green alternative than


rock riprap or concrete

 Stabilize slopes from erosion to keep roadways


safe and clean

 Exceeds FHWA and ECTC standards for TRMs

 Protect water quality in lakes, rivers and streams

 An EPA Best Management Practice (BMP) for National


Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
regulations

 Protect dormant seeding during winter months


 Easily conform to landscape features
 Lightweight for easy handling and transportation

 No heavy equipment needed to install

 No threat to pedestrians or automobiles when used near


travel routes
 Naturally filters runoff water

The TRMs easily conform to various landscape features to prevent the loss of
precious topsoil.

The RollMax TRMs are installed in a one-step operation directly over the
prepared seedbed saving time and money and ensuring the highest level of
erosion control and vegetation reinforcement.

VMax P550 Permanent TRM

VMax SC250 Permanent TRM

Our top of the line P550 TRM has a polypropylene fiber


matrix augmenting the permanent netting structure with
permanent mulching and erosion control performance.
Unvegetated, the P550 TRM reduces soil loss to less than 0.5
in. (12.7 mm) under shear stress up to 4.0 lbs/ft 2 (191 Pa). The
ultra-strong structure drives the vegetated shear resistance
up to 14 lbs/ft 2 (672 Pa), establishing a new maximum for
vegetation reinforcement. The P550 TRM may be used as an
alternative for poured concrete or articulated concrete blocks
in extreme erosion control projects.

The SC250 permanent TRM has a 70% straw/30% coconut


fiber matrix to enhance initial mulching and erosion control
performance for up to 24 months. Unvegetated, SC250 TRMs
reduce soil loss to less than 0.5 in. (12.7 mm) under shear
stress up to 3.0 lbs/ft 2, and increases permanent vegetation
performance up to 10 lbs/ft 2 (480 Pa) for a green alternative
to rock riprap.

VMax C350 Permanent TRM


A 100% coconut fiber matrix supplements the C350s
permanent three-dimensional netting structure with initial
mulching and erosion control performance for up to 36
months. Unvegetated, the C350 TRM reduces soil loss to
less than 0.5 in. (12.7 mm) under shear stress up to 3.2 lbs/ft 2
(153 Pa) and boosts permanent vegetation performance up to
12 lbs/ft 2 (576 Pa). This environmentally friendly alternative to
30 in. (76 cm) or larger rock riprap is ideal for severe erosion
control projects.

To boost performance of the VMax turf reinforcement mats in critical applications,


combine with our ShoreMax flexible transition mat to create a system that can
dramatically elevate the permissible shear stress and velocity protection beyond
many hard armor solutions.

ERONET PERMANENT EROSION CONTROL BLANKETS


The EroNet Permanent ECB provides immediate erosion
protection and vegetation establishment assistance until
vegetation roots and stems mature.
EroNet P300 Permanent Erosion Control Blankets
The P300 permanent erosion control blanket consists of
UV-stabilized polypropylene fiber stitched between heavyweight UV-stabilized polypropylene top and bottom nets.
These mats reduce soil loss and protect vegetation from
being washed away or uprooted, even under high stress.
Unvegetated, they reduce soil loss to less than 0.5 in.
(12.7 mm) under shear stress up to 3.0 lbs/ft 2 (144 Pa), and
protect vegetation from being washed away or uprooted
when exposed to shear stresses up to 8 lbs/ft 2 (383 Pa).

VMax Mats are perfect for pipe outlets, channel bottoms, shoreline transition
zones, and other areas subjected to highly turbulent water flows.

Temporary RollMax Solutions

Erosion control has never been so simple yet effective.


Tensars RollMax temporary Erosion Control Blankets (ECBs)
